Erin Blanchfield Eager to Prove She's Still Champion Caliber vs. Rose Namajunas | UFC Edmonton

[@mmaart1309]

Lets go erin 🔥🔥

[@fatsonic5776]

Rooting for her because 1 Im from NJ and 2 I love how she destroyed meatball molly lol. Im actually really hype for this card in general.

[@Induna123]

Still hated the way Molly lifted her up after the fight. It was like her way of getting the last say after getting mashed up for 2 minutes.

[@robie1445]

😅

[@movieandtheatrelover5587]

meatball molly though isnt actually a good fighter. she was a hype train prior to fighting blanchfield. shes only won 1 fight since losing to blanchfield

[@L.Ron.Hoyabembe]

2:10 Erin is only 5'4". She should strongly consider going down to 115 if she loses this weekend. She did poorly against Fiorot and that was mostly due to her height disadvantage.

[@TruthSeeker-rn1tm]

Still taller than Joe Rogan.

[@suh-mj2no]

@@L.Ron.Hoyabembe i agree that she needs to move down, cos she most likely will face Natalia Silva and Barber if she loses. and both of them would def pick her apart, tho i think she submits and ragdolls Barber, Silva on the other hand is too fast and sharp for her.

[@movieandtheatrelover5587]

whether she can actually make that weight though is another question

[@KingPAZmma]

@@suh-mj2no same for Karine Silva.

[@barneybrightbart7080]

Interesting that she says she could never go below 125. She was tiny compared to Fiorot, who just threw off her takedown attempts like she was a child while piecing her up from distance.

[@johanjotun1647]

WoW, no testosterone vocal damage 👂

[@puntsize]

lol

[@allen6775]

I hope Erin wins. She deserves it.

[@ASLVN.-nz4fv]

Rose will be to fast and can scramble so I don't see Erin winning this.

[@thewizkid52]

Unfortunately she looked like she's never threw hands in her life, her last fight.

[@numerouno4168]

Erin is going to send Rose back to 115.

[@mikel7800]

I predicted Manon Fiorot would defeat Erin Blanchfield. Erin doesn't move her head from the centerline and her striking defense overall is not efficient. Her ability to take damage while pressuring her opponent to work in her wrestling is her main strength. I think Rose will light her up in the 1st round. It'll possibly taper off in the 2nd. It's the end of the 2nd and the entire 3rd round where Erin has a chance to win. She's gotta take Rose down with a body lock and outside trip. Its the only chance she has.

[@IsenathiDyantyi]

Manon Fiorot fought Her already 👀

Rose ain’t winning

[@puntsize]

She’s good everywhere, but I see her genetics/athleticism impeding her ability to become a champion

[@suh-mj2no]

she's def not good everywhere, she has a lot of holes in her stand up game. and Rose will piece her up worst than Manon.

[@kevindurantburner3592]

@@suh-mj2no Not worse because Manon is even better than Rose at distance management but yeah Rose should win. Will be more competitive tho

[@suh-mj2no]

@@kevindurantburner3592 Manon literally ran away from her, let's not forget that she broke her finger in that fight. Rose's is even better at managing the distance and is a lot faster than Erin is. as i said, Rose's moves like water and is very light on the feet.

[@suh-mj2no]

@@kevindurantburner3592 the difference is Manon has pillow hands, Rose's def hits harder esp when fighting women HER SIZE.

[@movieandtheatrelover5587]

@@kevindurantburner3592 manon though ive noticed is rather flatfooted and rose has better footwork movement which would work well against erin as she only attacks in straight lines and isnt very good at cutting off the cage

[@sainttrunks1982]

She needs to go down to her real weight class 115 and rule there. But she is Beautiful

[@whypullout]

She said that ain't happen. Just like Kayla cutting weight, especially for women, it's harder

[@sainttrunks1982]

@@whypullout ok, i hope not. Cause if Muscle body Makenzie Dern and Gillian Robertson can do it, then Husky Erin Blanchfield can do it.

[@whypullout]

@@sainttrunks1982 their mental game is probably strong af and/or their chipper personality hides their stress from weight cutting. Plus Gilly smokes weed, maybe Dern too

[@slicksilver9441]

​@@whypulloutyes, dern smokes

[@whypullout]

@@slicksilver9441 then there it is lol weed before and after drug testing helps you heal after weight cuts

[@lartdelavivre1]

She is well rounded but should fight at SW. Unfortunately Rose will smoke her.

[@BizzyD13]

Horrible take. Blanchfield is more of a flyweight than Rose is. Her size and strength will likely get her the win.

[@lartdelavivre1]

@BizzyD13 Erin does not have the height and reach. Extremely rare a much shorter fight win a higher position unless you are soooooo strong like Andrade and could take ppl down so easy. Women don't fight in the pocket not like male fighters if they are short. Remember Rose is very experienced and well rounded with excellent food work. Erin is just 5' 4" and saying can't make 115? Nah, just a discipline issue/mindset on diet. There are only 2 fighters shorter than Erin. More than 85-90% is ranged from 5'5" to 5'9" in WFLYW in UFC.

[@movieandtheatrelover5587]

@@lartdelavivre1 rose ive noticed though tends to slow down in the later rounds. She dont like grinding matches and it could favour blanchfield the longer the fight goes

[@toyotorrr164]

No offends to Rose, She's really good, but i have to say, Y'all see what Gillian did to Rose? That's what Erin gonna do to Rose but ruthlessly.

[@L.Ron.Hoyabembe]

That wasn't MMA though. Striking is Rose's specialty, and she wasn't allowed to strike in that match.

[@movieandtheatrelover5587]

uh erins striking isnt very good. Her best bet would be to grapple with rose. shed get pierced up in striking against rose

[@Jexxtor]

Baby Blanchfield for the win

Such a cutie ! 😘😘 That win vs Andrade was very impressive , but Erin's striking got exposed last time around . And then she is fighting one of the best strikers in WMMA . Let's see how this goes . Good fight ...

her win over Andrade wasn't impressive at all. she fought the worst version of Jessica, 3 days cutting weight and lets not forget that she was a replacement of Taila Santos.
